How To Become A Successful Influencer

In today’s world, social media influencers have become a powerful force in shaping public opinion and driving consumer behavior. Becoming a successful influencer requires hard work, dedication, and a strategic approach. Here are some tips to help you achieve your goal of becoming a successful influencer:

  1. Find Your Niche: The first step to becoming an influencer is to identify your niche. You should choose a topic that you are passionate about and have expertise in. This could be anything from fashion, beauty, food, travel, or fitness. Once you have identified your niche, start creating content that is unique and stands out from the rest.
  2. Create Engaging Content: The key to success as an influencer is to create content that engages your audience. This could be in the form of blog posts, videos, or social media posts. Your content should be visually appealing, informative, and provide value to your followers.
  3. Build Your Audience: Building an audience is essential to becoming a successful influencer. You can do this by leveraging social media platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube. Consistency is key, so make sure to post regularly and engage with your followers.
  4. Collaborate with Brands: Once you have built a following, you can start collaborating with brands. This can be in the form of sponsored posts, product reviews, or giveaways. When collaborating with brands, make sure that the products or services you are promoting align with your values and your niche.
  5. Stay Authentic: Authenticity is crucial to becoming a successful influencer. Your followers should trust you and your recommendations. Be honest about your opinions and only promote products that you truly believe in. If you lose your authenticity, you risk losing your following.
  6. Network with Other Influencers: Networking with other influencers can help you grow your following and collaborate with brands. Attend events, join influencer networks, and engage with other influencers on social media.
  7. Be Patient: Becoming a successful influencer takes time and patience. Don’t expect to become an overnight success. Keep creating quality content, engaging with your audience, and collaborating with brands. Consistency and persistence are key.

In conclusion, becoming a successful influencer requires hard work, dedication, and a strategic approach. Find your niche, create engaging content, build your audience, collaborate with brands, stay authentic, network with other influencers, and be patient. Remember, success doesn’t come overnight, so keep pushing and don’t give up on your dreams.

Voice

There used to be a time when I had
someone in my life whom I used to
ask to send me voice notes, because
that person’s beautiful voice used to
calm down all the turmoils inside my head.
But sadly, people change with time.
Their voice might not change, but they
change. And when people change, no matter
how much you used to love them, you won’t
even feel like listening to their voice again.

Sensible

If something or someone is
getting on my nerves to an
extent that I cannot bear it.
I simply drift away from
that thing or that person.

Not everything/everyone needs
a reaction from you. They might
as well be doing whatever they’re
doing just to get on your nerves,
so that you can lose your calm.

Be a better and sensible person.
Don’t lose you calm and peace
of mind in such situations.

Friend

I know who’s my
genuine friend
and who’s not.

I know who stood
by my side when
I had hit rock bottom,
and I know who did not.

It’s so strange, those
who who always used
to claim to have my back
were never to be found
when I needed them.

So I know, who’s
my genuine friend,
and who’s not.

We Grew Apart

So many people, whom I
used to talk to all the time.
So many people, with whom I
used to spend so much of time.
We treat each others like
complete strangers now.

The sad is part is, nothing
went wrong between us.
We simply grew apart.
We grew so apart, that now,
it feels like we never
even knew each other.
It’s like we never even met.

People Forget You

People forget you.
That is how people are.
Then they’ll remember you.
Out of the blue,
they’ll reach out to you.
They’ll talk to you,
and tell you how much
they’ve missed you.
And once they start feeling
better, after talking to you.
They’ll forget about you,
again, in a blink of an eye.

This is an endless cycle.
It goes on and on and on.
We just get used to it.
So we never complain.
Because, ah there’s no
“because” to this thing.
We simply get used to
of being treated like this.

Because, that is
how people are.

How Do I Stop This Pain?

There’s a war brewing inside my head.
I’m so tired of this never ending sadness.
No more tears are left in my eyes to be shed.

To fight or not to fight?
I’m consumed by this darkness.
This darkness is getting stronger,
and my light is losing this fight.
I need to find the light.
Where’s the light?
Where’s the light?

I need to end this.
I need to know if I’m still sane.
Somebody, please stop this.
I don’t know how to stop this.
I feel all my efforts are going in vain.

Somebody, Please tell me.
How do I stop this pain?
How do I stop this pain?

My Heart Aches

My heart aches, every time
I think that you’ll never know
how much love I have for you,
in my heart. You look for this kind of love
everywhere else, in everyone else,
but you never look for it, in me.

I guess I’ll never be the one for you,
and I’m tired of being treated
like an option. I guess this is
where we part our ways.

The love you crave for,
was right in front of you.
If only you’d have opened
your eyes and seen it, but it’s okay.
This is how life works.

It’s time, for me to bid
you a final goodbye.

Dream or Nightmare?

Ever woke up in the middle of the night, after a dream in which you were still together with that person who broke your heart and crushed it? You were happy in that dream. But then you wake up smiling, and after a few seconds you realise it was just a dream and then the bitter memories hit you back, it hits you real hard and then, you just breakdown in the middle of the night. Sobbing uncontrollably, until you get so exhausted that you fall asleep, again.

It breaks you from inside.

How Have You Been?

How have you been?
Let’s catch up,
have some wine,
and conversate,
about how we always
trying to impersonate,
and trying to be
someone we’re not.
We are slowly
becoming
who we hate.
Life’s been hell lately,
but we tell everyone
it’s going great.
My mind, right now, is in
a pretty messed up state.
But I’m holding on, somehow,
telling myself to wait.
Wait for something good to happen,
something which’ll really be great.
Which’ll pull me out of
this miserable state.

But Hey,
how have YOU been?
Let’s catch up,
have some wine,
and conversate.
